Shrek!
Shrek! | William Steig
9 posts | 10 read | 1 to read
Before Shrek made it big on the silver screen, there was William Steig's SHREK!, a book about an ordinary ogre who leaves his swampy childhood home to go out and see the world. Shrek, a horrid little ogre, goes out into the world to find adventure and along the way encounters a witch, a knight in armor, a dragon, and, finally, a hideous princess, who's even uglier than he is!

Watched five Dreamworks Spooky Stories Halloween shorts on Netflix tonight while tracking some of my Readathon points and getting settled in for bed. Now it‘s back to my audiobook and then it‘s time for some zzzzzs. I‘ve got an early morning tomorrow. Goodnight Litsy! 🖤

Kids took over the tv again. They keep rotating in and putting on Halloween cartoons while doing Halloween crafts and snacking on Halloween snacks. So far we watched the three Dreamworks Spooky Stories Halloween episodes and the Amazing World of Gumball. So 21 more pts for #teamharkness #scarathlon @StayCurious total 304

Not how I knew if from the movies, but it was interesting to see how Shrek acted and how he met Donkey and the princess.

Library #bookhaul from Friday! Some of them may have an underlying motive, i.e. How Do Dinosaurs Eat Their Food?

PathfinderNicole My 6 year old loves the How Do Dinosaurs...series and Dem Bones! 6y
ravenlee If you're having picky eater troubles, Gregory the Terrible Eater is a funny picture book about a goat who wants to eat vegetables and other foods. 6y
jwashreads @ravenlee she tells us she every dinner time that she doesn't like what we've put in front of her. Usually, she doesn't even know what it is! I'll check out Gregory, thanks! @PathfinderNicole she loves the human body, and she's wanting books to learn about toes, but there aren't many out there! We compromised with bones 😊 6y
ravenlee Parents magazine has done some articles on food chaining, starting with familiar foods and bridging to new ones, so you may find some of that on their site. Might be helpful? 6y

melyndarae @ForeverNerdy Thanks he's still going. So we'll see. Lol. May be an early bed night. 6y
[DELETED] 3803335244 As a mother myself I can totally empathize. It‘s hard when a little ones sleeping schedule changes. ❤️ Hugs 6y
melyndarae @ForeverNerdy Yea especially when they are normally really good sleepers lol. He hasn't napped since he turned 2. So he normally sleeps a good 10-12 hours. ❤ Hugs back 😊 6y

A thousand times yes. I like other William Stieg books, but not this one. The only similarity is that the ogre is green.

thegirlwiththelibrarybag Did not realise that there was a book first #awkward 😳 8y
